  • Playing on the snowmobiles up Deer Creek

    Since we had Monday off for Presidents Day, I took the opportunity to go on a quick ride up Deer Creek.  The snow was pretty nice and it is close enough to home that it allowed the dogs to come and have a good time too. The video here shows me on my 2008 800…

  • JD Model A Radiator Reassembly How-to

    1939 Model A Radiator Muffler Replacement how-to. This video shows the installation of the radiator, muffler, air stack, and re-assembly of the tractor. As a note–I should have filled the radiator after I re-attached the hoses on the cooling system. I had a leak in one of the hoses, and having the hood off would…

  • 1949 John Deere BW Muffler Replacement Video Preview

    John Deere BW Muffler Replacement Preview–incomplete. This is a section of a video I’m putting together of a muffler replacement on a 1949 John Deere Model B. It’s the first time I’ve had this hood off, so I ran into a few snags. I’ll have to finish it another day. When I do, I’ll make…

  • Time Lapse Drive to and from Work

    Here’s a little time lapse video I made on my way to work one morning.  It starts off in Freedom and ends at Afton, going through Thayne and Grover.     And here is a video of my drive home from work.  

  • Photo Journal Jan 2012

    This year I’ve decided to once again do a photo journal.  However, unlike previous attempts, I am only going to take one photo a day, and upload the entire month as a single post, instead of a post every day.  These photos are just that–a journal.  They are not meant to be glamourous or overly…

  • Burning of the Old House

    It’s hard to believe that we are coming up on one year since we burned down the “Old House”.  This house was on our farm from about 1914 to March 16th, 2011.  The home was built by my grat-grandfather Lawrence Weber and his siblings for their mother, my great-great grandmother Verena Weber, whom was born…

  • Wintertime Feeding Cattle

    Even though we sold the dairy a few years ago, we still have a few beef cattle.  It’s kind of fun feeding them when dad isn’t doing it.  Here’s a few random photos of our cattle feeding experiences.  

  • Model A First Drive

    I spent a little more time on the A, and decided to take her for a test drive.  She did okay, but still needs some work.  I don’t know if it is the timings or carb but the RPMs just wouldn’t go up, making it have no power.  Eventually I’ll get there…  

  • John Deere 4020

    We have a fairly rare John Deere 4020 on our farm.  I suppose it’s rare because it gets the most hits out of all of my videos on Youtube!  Okay, after doing some research online and reading some books, it really is.  It has four wheel drive (FWA, or Front Wheel Assist to be exact),…

  • Difference In A Year

    It’s amazing how different one year can be.  Especially when it comes to the weather and snowfall.  Last year we had new fresh powder almost every single week.  This year we really haven’t gotten any new snow since the first of November.  I thought it might be neat showing a photo comparing the two.
